Kalshi taps Paul Clement for Supreme Court fight over New Jersey
NEXTPredict reports the retention as Kalshi's legal fights widened this week, alongside the Ninth Circuit rehearing denial in its Nevada case and the new Arkansas lawsuit. The New Jersey dispute is already before the Supreme Court.
Kalshi has retained former US Solicitor General Paul Clement to represent it in its New Jersey dispute before the Supreme Court, according to NEXTPredict.
The report, published Nov 6, 2026 at 6:45 PM ET, adds a development to a dispute that is already before the Supreme Court. The retention itself does not establish any change in the case’s status.
Legal battles widen
The appointment comes as Kalshi’s legal fights widened this week, according to NEXTPredict. Alongside the New Jersey matter, the company faced a Ninth Circuit rehearing denial in its Nevada case and a new Arkansas lawsuit.
Those developments concern separate proceedings. The supplied summary does not specify the scope of the Supreme Court dispute, the grounds for the Nevada rehearing denial or the claims in the Arkansas lawsuit.
What it means for prediction markets
- Counsel is not an outcome: Clement’s retention is a development in Kalshi’s representation, not a Supreme Court ruling.
- Track each proceeding separately: The New Jersey dispute, Nevada rehearing denial and new Arkansas lawsuit are distinct legal developments.
- Timing remains unspecified: The supplied report provides no date for the Supreme Court’s next action or a resolution of the New Jersey dispute.
